Communism and Culture : An Introduction Paperback / softback
by Radu Stern, Vladimir Tismaneanu
Paperback / softback
Description
This book is a comprehensive introduction to the relationship between communism (understood as an ideological, political, and social project) and culture, broadly defined as the field of aesthetic production.
Communism was a global phenomenon, and the global civil war of the 20th century was, in more than one respect, a cultural war, which involved some of the most influential figures of the last century.
The book highlights and explains the impact of political mythologies in the effiorts to transcend the “bourgeois” legacies and engage in a social, cultural, and anthropological revolution.
The authors examine the interplay between utopian goals and cultural practices in fields such as literature, visual arts, film, and humanities in general.
